Conditions / Refusal Reasons
The development to which this permission relates must be begun not later than the expiration of three years beginning with the date of this permission.
Reason: By virtue of Sections 91 to 95 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.
That the development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the details shown on the following approved plans, 10019022 PLG-06, 10019022 PLG-02, 10019022 PLG-01, 10019022 PLG-07, 10019022 PLG-04, 10019022 PLG-05, 10019022 PLG-03 and 04539 TP-PP, except as controlled or modified by conditions of this permission.
Reason: To secure the proper planning of the area in accordance with Development Plan policies.
The exterior of the development hereby permitted shall only be constructed in the materials specified on the plans hereby approved or in materials which shall previously have been approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: In the interests of the visual appearance of the development in accordance with Policy CSQ3 of the South Oxfordshire Core Strategy 2027 and Policies G2 and D1 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
A Construction Traffic Management Plan (CTMP) shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority prior to the commencement of development. The approved CTMP shall be implemented prior to any works being carried out on site, and shall be maintained throughout the course of the development.
Reason: In the interests of highway safety and to mitigate the impact of construction vehicles on the surrounding highway network, road infrastructure and local residents, particularly at morning and afternoon peak traffic times and in accordance with Policy T1 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
That a scheme for the landscaping of the site, including the planting of replacement trees shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority prior to the commencement of the development hereby permitted. The scheme shall be implemented prior to the first occupation or use as approved within 12 months of the commencement of the approved development and thereafter be maintained in accordance with the approved scheme. In the event of any of the trees or shrubs so planted dying or being seriously damaged or destroyed within 5 years of the completion of the development, a new tree or shrub or equivalent number of trees or shrubs, as the case may be, of a species first approved by the Local Planning Authority, shall be planted and properly maintained in a position or positions first approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: To help to assimilate the development into its surroundings in accordance with Policy CSQ3 of the South Oxfordshire Core Strategy 2027 and Policies G2, C9 and D1 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
All plant, machinery and equipment associated with the car wash facilities to be used by reason of the granting of this permission shall be so installed, maintained and operated so as to ensure that the rating noise level from the equipment does not exceed the background noise level at the boundary of the premises. Measurement and rating of noise for the purposes of this condition
shall be in accordance with BS4142 (2014) 'Method for rating industrial and commercial sound'. The measurement location shall be 1 metre from the faÿ¿¿¿§ade of the nearest noise sensitive receptor.
In the event of unacceptable noise or vibration being caused by the installed plant, machinery and equipment, the applicant or persons responsible shall investigate and undertake works to resolve the problem to the satisfaction of the local planning authority.
Reason: To protect the occupants of nearby residential properties from loss of amenity due to noise disturbance and in accordance with Policies EP1 and EP2 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
No development shall take place until a detailed prediction of the noise produced by activities/or equipment associated with the development; has been submitted to and approved, in writing, by the Local Planning Authority. The report must be prepared in accordance with BS4142 (2014) Method for rating industrial and commercial sound. The report should include:
- A detailed plan of the proposed noise sources, refrigeration unit specification and other relevant technical specifications
- Noise sources and measurement/ prediction points marked on plan/area map
- Noise levels produced by the refrigeration units etc at the nearest noise sensitive location
- The rating level of the noise - is it tonal or intermittent?
- The expected times of operation of the equipment
- The background noise level at the nearest noise sensitive location
- Details of noise mitigation measures proposed/required (acoustic fencing, acoustic enclosures e.t.c)
- Description of noise calculation procedure and methodology
- Comparison of noise levels with appropriate criteria, good values (WHO & British Standards)
If identified to be necessary, following approval of the noise assessment the applicant should submit a detailed scheme to control the noise produced by the development which must be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved scheme must then be implemented and maintained for the duration of the development.
Reason: To protect the occupants of nearby residential properties from loss of amenity due to noise disturbance and in accordance with Policies EP1 and EP2 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Local Planning Authority 'LPA', No development other than that required to be carried out as part of an approved remediation scheme must not commence until phases i) to ii) have been complied with, or further works have been deemed unnecessary as a result of conclusions based on risk assessments during phases i) and this has been agreed upon in writing by the LPA.
Document(s) detailing the works undertaken in each phase must be submitted to and approved by the LPA in writing before any other phase commences, and before occupation of any building in relation to phase iii). All phases of investigation must be designed and conducted in accordance with DEFRA and the Environment Agency's 'Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination, CLR 11.
i) An intrusive site investigation to assess the type, nature, extent and risk(s) of any contamination identified in ii), whether or not it originates on site. It is recommended that the LPA are consulted on proposals.
ii) A detailed remediation scheme, to bring the site to a condition suitable for the intended use. The scheme shall include all works to be undertaken, proposed remediation objectives and remediation criteria, a timetable of works and site management procedures. The scheme shall also ensure that after remediation the site will not qualify as Contaminated Land under Part 2A Environmental Protection Act 1990.
iii) Validation of the remediation scheme demonstrating the effectiveness of the remediation approved in ii).
If contamination is found during the course of development that was not previously identified, the development must be halted on that part of the site to the extent specified by the LPA and until the LPA are satisfied that all necessary phases above have been undertaken.
Reason: To ensure that risks from land contamination to future users of the land and neighbouring land are minimised, together with those to controlled waters, property and ecological systems, and to ensure that the development can be carried out safely without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours and other offsite receptors in accordance with policy EP8 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
External lighting will only be permitted in accordance with a lighting scheme to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Any such lighting shall be designed to ensure light is directed downwards to prevent nuisance to adjoining residential occupiers from light spillage. Further to this, lighting sources (bulbs and reflectors) should not be visible from any adjacent
properties through the use of shields or recommended alternatives.
This scheme shall also ensure that light trespass into the windows of any light sensitive premises shall not have a Vertical Illuminance greater than [2, 5, 10 or 25] Lux as detailed and in accordance with the Institution of Lighting Engineers Guidance Notes for the Reduction of Obtrusive Light GN01).
Reason: To safeguard the amenity of neighbouring residents and the rural character of the countryside in accordance with Policy CSEN1 of the South Oxfordshire Core Strategy 2027 and Policy EP3 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
